Granger Smith's Fundraiser:

3rd Annual Boot Walk with Granger Smith

THE STORY:

The Boot Campaign wrote -

He’s at it again! For the third straight year, country music artist Granger Smith is walking 100 miles in combat BOOTS! Since 2011, Granger has logged 200 miles in his boots - his way of paying tribute to all those serving our country in the U.S. Armed Forces. Because of his passion for our troops, Granger even wrote and recorded a successful song dedicated to our military men and women called, "That's What I Do With It.”

All funds raised through the Boot Walk will benefit the Boot Campaign, a national 501c3 non-profit that is dedicated to showing tangible appreciation of our active military, raising awareness of the challenges they face upon return and supporting their transition home.

On April 7, 2013 Granger Smith will begin a 100-mile journey in Austin, TX that will lead him to Fort Hood. His journey of gratitude will culminate on April 11, 2013 where he will perform a concert.
